JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024If DeMar goes down like literally what the fuck, SAC may genuinely need to punt the season. Can DFox helio-ball with an already bad bench getting weaker hold the fort until Monk, DeMar, Carter return? 120
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024KAT with some huge self creation plays from up top, just insane for a big guy. The skill and composure of their wing group Beautiful stuff man they just have to figure the D out, KAT has to lock in on that end 230
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024Lavine trolling down the stretch with reads to secure the tank I LOVE YOU BRO 020
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024No question about the offensive ceiling of this Knicks closing unit man INSANE 120
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024This is an insanely fun game lol haymaker for haymaker 030
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024We need Miami Heat to overpay for him so something that appeals to Heat idk Maybe a nice cool glass of Iced Tea 010
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024Man these Ayo Dosunmu grab and goes fucking move me man He's had so many of them over the last 2 years, and a lot in key moments. Shows his game is maturing; not letting the flow of the game dictate his process (in a good way). If the transition drive is there, he takes it. Love it. 010
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024If Zach plays the whole season up until the trade deadline without major injuries I cannot see a team not offering something acceptable (matching salaries + an asset) for him, these NBA GMs are too reactionary to not make a move like that 030

JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024Once again, if you tank, this is how you do it. Get your young guys opportunities to try make big, playoff-type plays in tight moments against good teams 110
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024Bulls obviously lack shot creation in key moments and that has contributed to this large Knicks run But I'm impressed with the composure on isolated plays Ayo driving the long closeout, keeping dribble alive through 2nd line of help, creating an eventual wide open 3 JPhillips, Dalen big C&S makes 120
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024Knicks got the lead but Loved that Dalen aggressively shot (and made) the wing 3 to keep the lead to 4 before that Hart drive 000
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024Love Cam Paye man And LOVE this Knicks lineup (Payne, Deuce, Mikal, Hart, KAT) 100
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024Welp, look at that. It's already within 5 With that said that travel call on Coby was dodgy as hell lol I'm sure refs saw something but if they're calling the step through/pivot moves that strictly I'm sure half of SGA/Brunson's pivot moves are travels 000
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024Bulls do some good things but they've faltered in so many close games this year and really that's why their record isn't that great Think all but like 2 of their losses would have been wins if they still had DeMar 000
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024Knicks haven't been good so far this year and their record reflects that but come on man losing to the Bulls would be kinda crazy Still feel like if they can cut this lead to ~10 entering the fourth, that they've got a great chance 220

JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024So I would like him to really develop and master the Bane/Trey type side step one dribble 3s vs closeouts And maybe even try and hunt PU3s out of 2 man game with his bigs. They should mostly be on-balance if he’s guarded by the opponent’s worst or second-worst POA defender 000
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024To me Paw’s best chance of being a uniquely good starter for most teams is getting the 3 ball volume up. He’s got a quite rigid form so I don’t think movement 3s are on the table, but his on-ball coordination has been a sell since he was a prospect 100
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024But this year he’s been the main ballhandler. To me that’s the main difference between this year and last year. The D still been very up and down. The shot selection is still as Zach as ever But he’s playing with a flow he didn’t have last year because he doesn’t worry about rhythm as much 000
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024Knicks commentators talking about Lavine’s shot selection right after he shot a contested transition 3 (which he did make) 😭😭😭 That was the training camp goal for the Bulls: get Zach off the ball, get him to play D and clean up the shot selection. Absolutely. 200
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024Nuggets is the move that feels like it’s made sense for a while; they could use a “3&D” 2 guard (even if Ayo is more JHoliday/RJax than KCP on D) Ayo would play well w Joker in 2 man game too 000
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024The lack of physicality on drives limits how far he can take his transition slashing too because his sheer speed + awareness gets him 2-3 layups running the break every game 220
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024His limitations (struggles vs contact on drives on O, screen navigation being ok not great) matter a lot more on the Bulls But on a team like Dallas he could mainly just spot up in the halfcourt and play vs long closeouts…think he’d COOK in a context like that 120
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024Would be really fun to see Ayo on a team with creators who can (not that they should) shoulder much larger offensive loads than the Bulls main creators 120
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024But I just thought Zach passing struggles were mostly tied to an inability to read the level of help provided from defenders on the weakside (stunts vs legit help) Idk what the reason are for his struggles now 010
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024compared to last year Most of them are in big space (no help) but some of them have been with 2 on the weakside too. Again, there’s minimal functional clutch playmaking impact 110
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024I gotta say man Zach has made some solid passing reads this year It’s obviously still not great in clutch situations. But across 48 minutes he’s making some nice interior feeds. Has helped Vooch this year FS 120
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024And they have to keep challenging Giddey to finding halfcourt self creation solutions because he’s been good or promising at basically everything else this year, even defense Said it so many times on the other app, but would try to trade all of Lavine/Ayo/Paw/Vooch 000
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024I’m just gonna say that I think they’ve done OK there They’ve gotten Matas minutes even with the crowded frontcourt rotation We need trades to clear up forward minutes, JPhillips and Matas both could play starter mins in 5th option roles, Dalen needs to be challenged to have creation load 110
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024Matas is built of the right stuff man Unflappable confidence. Cut off by Hart but keeps dribble alive and keeps attacking But I’ve seen dudes with that confidence falter (Giddey, DLo, Sexton, Brooks) when overextended Bulls need to challenge him without throwing him into the deep water 130
JBBHoops @jbbhoops.bsky.social · 14/11/2024Dalen Terry really is starting to show some skill initiating O and playmaking in transition man 010
